for their kind permission to copy the manuscript which is re- 
produced in this volume, and for the facilities which they have 
courteously extended to the Club for carrying out the work. 

They also desire to thank the Earl of Leicester for permission 
to copy certain pages of his manuscript; and to acknowledge 
with many thanks the assistance rendered by Mr. A. Van de Put, 
of the Victoria and Albert Museum, in interpreting the heraldic 
ornaments contained in the manuscripts.

INTRODUCTION 

THE CHRIST CHURCH MANUSCRIPT 

Description and History 

The manuscript measures 9^^ inches by 8^, and contains 
1 + 82 free leaves (i. e. leaves not pasted to the covers) ; the 
text has 20 lines to a full page. 

The binding is of beech vi^ood boards. These are now 
covered by a * chemise ' of red patterned velvet, said to be of 
the fifteenth century, with ornaments broidered on it in gold 
and silver thread. The chemise when unfolded measures 24^ 
inches in length by 2 of in breadth. It is lined with thick 
deerskin (?). There are two tassels of yellow silk at the upper 
corners and remains of an edging of yellow or gold cord. The 
pattern of the velvet runs horizontally to the height of the book, 
and the ornaments are set in the same direction. These latter 
are all of one type, and appear to represent pomegranates set 
in calyxes. 

The velvet is in good condition, but much tattered where it 
folds over at the upper edge of the book. 

The collation is as follows : One fly-leaf: i* 2^-5^ (wants 
5) 6* 7^ 8'** (+ 2 after the fourth leaf) 9*^ 10* 11* (wants i) 
1 2 an anomalous quire of nine leaves : apparently consisting of 
six leaves plus two pairs of inserted leaves, and minus one leaf; 
but I cannot detect the place of the missing leaf: 13* (two 
lining the cover). 

Very few of the catchwords or signatures remain. 

On the vellum fly-leaf is this inscription : 

* Bibliothecae Aedis X*' Oxon / Librum hunc donavit Guliel- 
mus Carpender / Parochiae de Stanton super Vagam / in 
Agro Herefordensi Rector, / Ejusdem Aedis olim Alumnus /

X INTRODUCTION 

The old press-mark was E. ii. The manuscript is no. 92 
in Kitchin's Catalogue. 

At the end is a note: * lyg March 4th returnd 

tynlly (?).' 

Or the history of the volume before its arrival at Christ 
Church I find no trace ; but it had not long been in Oxford 
— had not, in fact, been actually placed in the Library of his 
College by Dean Aldrich — before it attracted the notice of 
Thomas Hearne. In his Collections he gives an account of it 
which will be found interesting. The first note is under date 
1706, Oct. 25 [Collections, vol. i, p. 298, ed. Oxford Historical 
Society) : 

* The Dean of X* Ch. has a MS* written in y*' time of 
K. Edward III. Quaere w* it is?' 

Then on p. 299 : 

* The Book above mention'd of the Dean of X* Ch. was 
written by Walter de Millemet Clericus in the year 1326, 
viz. the I*' of the Reign of Edw. 3. It beginns thus {the 
Rubric is quoted). 

* 'Tis in quarto & most curiously illuminated, containing 
some of the chief Courtiers etc. of that time. Arms, Birds, 
Beasts, etc. The Author I do not find mention'd in Leland, 
Bales, or Pits. The Shoes then w^^out Heels, as appears fi-om 
the Pictures. At the End of the Rubricks the Pictures of 
K. Edw. Ill & Qu. Philippa. 

* The Book itself beginns thus . . . 

* In the 2nd page the Arms of the K. of England. After 
that follow the Arms of the Prince of Wales, the Pictures of 
Courtney & Wake, the Arms of Th. Brotherton E. of 
Norfolk, viz. Gu. 3 Lions pas. or, a. file of five. 2 of Edm. 
de Woodstock, viz. Gul. 3 hions passant or w*in.a Border Arg. 
w* other Arms of y* Nature. The ii*^ Chapter is . . . 

*Just above y^ Beginning of this chapter K. Ed. Ill is 
painted etc. as also he is in several places. Presently after the 
Beginning of this Chapter is the Author's Name ... At 
the bottom of one page of this Chapter are y^ Arms of 



THE CHRIST CHURCH MANUSCRIPT xi 

Henry Earl of Lancaster . . . and of Edmund Earl of 
Lancaster. . . . 

* From this chapter it appears y* this Author transcrib'd 
Aristotle's Book intitled de Secretis Secretorum (w*^'' Aristotle 
had presented to Alexander the Great) for y^ use of K. Edward, 
and y' w* he has writ in this Book was only by way of Supple- 
ment & Explication. This to be taken Notice of hereafter by 
y^ Editor of Aristotle's Works. The Author very free in tell- 
ing the King to preserve the Rights & Liberties of the Church. 
The Gloves much then as the tip'd Gloves now. The Arms 
of John de Eltham Earl of Cornwall . . . No sleeves to y^"' Coats. 
I take this to have been y* very Copy that was presented to 
K. Edward by y* Author.' ' 

There are some other mentions of the manuscript in Hearne's 
Collections^ but they do not add materially to this, his principal 
account. It is noteworthy that he has seized upon a salient 
point of interest, namely, that the Christ Church MS. was not 
the whole of Walter de Milemete's offering to the King, 
but that a sister book went with it. That sister book we have 
in the Holkham MS. of the Secreta Secretorum. 

Walter de Milemete himself is, and must, I fear, remain, an 
obscure personality. He calls himself clericus, and is styled 
King's clerk in the one document referring to him which 
I have been able to find.* This is in the Calendar of Patent 
Rolls of Edward III (13 27-1 3 30), p. 250. Here is entered 
under date 1328, March 5, York : 

* Grant to Master Walter de Milemete, King's clerk, of the 
prebend which Adam de Carleton, late archdeacon of Corn- 
wall, deceased, formerly had in the church of St. Thomas, 
Glasneye, in the King's gift by reason of the voidance of the 
see of Exeter.' 

At Glasney in Penryn, in the deanery of Kerrier in Corn- 

' Hearne reproduces part of this account in his Discourse on the Stunsfield tessellated 
Pavement prefixed to vol. viii of Leland's Itinerary (ed. % 1744, p. xxv). 

^ I was under the impression that I had been the first to trace the grant ; but the 
admirable Tanner has it in his Bibliothecay p. 527, s. v. Millemete. 



xii INTRODUCTION 

wall, was a collegiate church of St. Mary and St. Thomas the 
Martyr (of Canterbury) founded in 1264 (and enlarged in 
1267) by Walter Bronescomb, bishop of Exeter, for a priest, 
a sacrist, eleven prebendaries, seven vicars and six choristers, 
which at its dissolution in 26 Henry VIII was valued at 
jf2io 1 3 J. 2cl. in toto^ and ^205 lOf. 6</. dare. 

The fiiUest account of the foundation is in Oliver's Mona- 
sticon Dioc. Exoniensis, p. 48. See also Dugdale (last ed.), vi. 
1344, and Tanner's Notitia^ s. v. Penryn. 

Whether Walter de Milemete ever occupied his prebendal 
stall, and how long he enjoyed its revenues, I do not think 
we can expect to learn. There are no registers of the founda- 
tion in existence, and, I may add in passing, hardly any vestige 
of the buildings remains. 

As to the date of the treatise, we have the authority of 
the introductory rubric that it was composed in the year 1326. 
That year, of course, must be taken as extending up to the 25 th 
of March in what we should call the year 1327. It was, indeed, 
in the January of 1 3 2 f that Edward III, declared guardian 
of the realm by his party in October, 1326, was placed on 
the throne. On Jan. 20 the resignation of Edward II was 
obtained: it was not until the 2 1 st of September that he was mur- 
dered. Milemete's phraseology, quoted below, shows that when 
he wrote Edward III was in effective possession of the throne, 
but that Edward II was still living ; and towards him such lan- 
guage is used as might not prove prejudicial to the writer if by 
any chance he should regain power. The execution of the 
Christ Church and the Holkham MSS. must, then, be assigned 
to the last months of 1326 and the first three of what we now 
call 1327. The Holkham MS. was apparently the first to be 
written (though it is the less finished of the two), for Milemete 
speaks of it as if it had been already sent. It was a safe gift 
to make to the heir-apparent of the kingdom : there were no 
allusions to contemporary politics, and the precepts contained 
in the text could not but be useful to one who was marked 
out as the next occupant of the throne. The same could 



THE CHRIST CHURCH MANUSCRIPT xiii 

hardly be said of the supplement to it which we have in the 
Christ Church MS., where Edward III is definitely addressed 
as King. No doubt, as the situation developed, Milemete 
reflected that an additional gift, and one in which the rising 
power was more directly greeted, would be advisable ; and, to 
my thinking, he does his best to provide one without wholly 
cutting off the opportunity of a retreat. 

Contents of the Manuscript 

For the benefit of those who are not desirous of reading the 
whole text of Walter de Milemete — and I must say that no one 
who does read it will be much the wiser — a summary of the 
treatise shall be subjoined here. 

The title (p. I ) sets forth that the book is to treat of the things 
that concern the nobility, wisdom, and prudence of kings, and 
that it is written * in honour of the illustrious Lord Edward by 
the grace of God King of England, beginning to reign, in the 
year from the incarnation of the Lord thirteen hundred and 
twenty-six '. 

Then follow the titles or rubrics of the chapters of the work. 
Seventeen titles are given, but there is no text coresponding to 
the first, which is : Of the supplications and divine prayers which 
befit a king^ and of the stories of the acts of our Creator^ which 
the King ought to contemplate. As the text begins a new quire 
there is no means of knowing whether this first chapter ever 
existed. It may have been intended to fill the four pages 
following the rubrics, which are now occupied by pictures. 

Chapter I. Of the invocation of the name of God at the begin- 
ning of every work. 

The writer quotes a number of passages from the Codex, the 
Authentica, the Digest, xh^Decretum of Gratian, and the Timaeus 
Platonis (the last on God as Creator of all) to justify his in- 
vocation of the Deity, and ends with a prayer or aspiration 
which contains some interesting features. He prays that God 
would grant him grace to write * that which may tend to the 



xiv INTRODUCTION 

benefit and honour of our venerable Lord, Lord Edward Duke 
of Aquitaine, Earl of Chester and Ponthieu/ for the love of 
whom this treatise has been made. That the glorious God 
Himself may grant to our Lord the Duke, and Earl of Chester 
(the words domino nostro duct are written over an erasure and the 
et is added aprh coup), the firstborn son and heir of our illus- 
trious Lord, Lord Edward, by the grace of God King of England 
(whom may the Most High help and preserve in all his good 
and useful actions), that he may understand wisely the things 
that are written in this book,' etc. etc. 

The first Edward mentioned in this sentence is clearly 
Edward III. Clearly also his father Edward II was alive when 
the words were written j and to him a sort of modified allegiance 
is expressed. The prayer that he may be helped in cunctis suis 
actibus bonis et utilibus implies to my thinking that he was 
thought capable of other acts which were not boni et utiles. 

Chapter II. An Epistle enticing the Lord King to the acquir- 

^^S ^f ^^^S^y knowledge. 

To his most excellent and illustrious Lord Edward, by the 
divine provision (not permissione but provisione) King of Eng- 
land, Lord of Ireland, and Duke of Aquitaine, his humble and 
devoted IValter de Milemete, clerk, (ofFereth) reverence and 
honour 2ind faithful worship of devotion, himself znA all that is 
his, etc. 

(The italicized words have apparently been rewritten, pro- 
bably in consequence of an error. It is not likely that any- 
thing very different stood in their place originally.) 

May God give you success. You know that the kingly 
office exceeds all others in dignity ; and it is the duty of sub- 
jects to consider how they may increase the power and majesty 
of their lords, since the prosperity and success of the lords 
tend to the profit of the commonwealth, and of all subjects. 

Hence it is that I your subject have thought fit to compose 

' He was created Earl of Ponthieu and Duke of Aquitaine by his father in 
September, 1325. 



THE CHRIST CHURCH MANUSCRIPT xv 

this work, and also the book of the philosopher Aristotle, in 
which a great store of human wisdom and discretion is con- 
tained : as will appear later on clearly enough in various 
chapters. 

Whence it brings joy to the hearts of men, and the realm 
of England may well be glad, that you, Lord King, Duke (the 
word Dux is added at the end of a line, and Rex may also be 
an addition), and Earl, firstborn son and heir of our illustrious 
Lord King lately (the word nuper is also added at the end of 
a line) of England — whom may the supreme God cherish in 
all his profitable acts and always grant him the grace to do well 
— are, as I truly believe, by the providence of God learned in 
letters, and instructed in liberal and legal knowledge. (The 
words run * et michi scienciis liberalibus et legalibus instructi ': 
michi has some appearance of having a line drawn through it ; 
perhaps it is a mistake for in or for multis.) 

From this will accrue many advantages, as will be shown in 
this treatise, and as I find {inuenio wrongly written) in divers 
books that in ancient times the sons of kings and nobles were 
taught by wise masters. For knowledge makes a man (a whole 
list of excellences is given). Whence it is clear that a king 
instructed after a proper sort will (be everything that could be 
wished). Of this there is clear evidence fi-om the case of 
Alexander the Great, who subdued many nations owing to the 
counsels of a certain philosopher Aristotle, the wisest that ever 
was. He wrote for King Alexander a book called the Book 
concerning the secrets of the secrets of Aristotle. It was written 
when the author was too aged and too weak in body to live 
at the Court ; and by means of it Alexander was enabled to 
achieve great success. And for this reason I have thought well 
to have that book copied word for word for your use, that you 
might have the benefit of its teaching, along with other supple- 
ments and instructions concerning the kingly office which I 
have thought out and added in this book. Thus you will have 
the same advantages as Alexander ; and if you make use of them 
I am sure that when you come to man's estate you will be 



xvi INTRODUCTION 

eminently successful, and in the end attain everlasting life. 
And that it may be so, let every one who reads this chapter or 
hears it read say devoutly to the praise and honour of God and 
of the Blessed Virgin three Paternosters and the salutation of 
the glorious Virgin. 

Chapter III. Of the religion of the King and of his hope in 
the divine power in all he does. 

There is nothing so important as the true feith, which the 
prince should learn. What is learnt early remains in the mind 
till old age ; so early religious instruction is important. 

The King must keep the Hberties of the Church unscathed : 
he should attend upon its ministries, hear Mass at least once 
a day, give alms, help the oppressed, and do good works. 

He should command all religious persons (= monks) in his 
realm to pray for the King, the Queen, and their children, and 
to commemorate his predecessors. 

He should love God above all things. This will secure him 
the reverence of his subjects ; and if there should arise a dissen- 
sion between the King and his barons, or among his subjects, 
they will say to each other : * Lo, we have a good Christian 
king who loves God and the Church. We shall do well to 
submit ourselves to him : and if we have done anything against 
him, we repent of it, and will humbly ask his pardon.' 

Chapter IV. Of the nobility of the King, the prosperity of his 
government, and the cause of his expedicio. 

Wisdom, justice, and mercy are the means which will pro- 
cure the love and attachment of the nobles and commons, and 
will pave the way to conquest, prosperity, and everlasting life. 

Chapter V. Of the wisdom of the King. 

Wisdom is a very desirable thing. It leads to victory and to 
peace. The King must keep peace among his magnates : he 
should not take part with one against another : he should 
consider all causes carefully, and, in particular, the propositions 
made in parliamentis. 



THE CHRIST CHURCH MANUSCRIPT xvii 

Chapter VI. Of the deliberation of the King. 

He must do all things discreetly and under advice. Nobles 
and prelates will often come and ask for divers boons, as for 
liberties to be granted to them, escheats, wards, marriages, 
lands and rents to be held in mortmain, immunities and privi- 
leges to be granted to places and individuals. These must be 
dealt with fairly and careftiUy, not hastily. The answer should 
be, * We have heard your petition, and will deliberate upon 
it with our council.' If the request can be granted vidthout 
damage to you, it should be granted. A great man should 
perform what he has promised without undue haste or delay. 

Chapter VII. Of the gratitude of the King. 

Men do service for three principal causes : (i) from natural 
inclination ; (2) from hope of gain ; (3) from compulsion. 

Each of these classes is dwelt upon. 

The first deserve most of their lord. 

The second may be foreign vassals from another province, 
mercenaries, serving the King in war as schanaldores^ or else 
powerfiil subjects of your own. These a wise king will summon 
before him when the war is over, and will thank them graciously 
and reward them generously. Then they will say, * This is 
a worthy lord to serve under.' This was the practice of the 
great Alexander. 

The third class should also be fittingly rewarded. Nothing 
is more injurious than ingratitude. There is a metrical adage : 

Lex et natura^ Christus et omnia iura 
Dampnant ingratum, lamentantur fore natum. 

The soldiers vvdll say in such a case, * We have toiled hard for 
no return.' Though they may show a good face to you, their 
hearts will be far from you. For these causes such men . . .

Edward II, and may therefore have been purposely removed).

xviii INTRODUCTION 

Chapter VIII. Of the progress of the Kings instruction. 

The chapter begins with a prayer for a blessing on the 
understanding of the King. You should, continues the author, 
know how to read and speak French and Latin, and among 
other things it is very useful to possess a knowledge of the art 
of writing, even though you may not always be busy with it : 
for it is very important to be able to write letters yourself, and 
avoid entrusting your counsels to a scribe. This again was 
the practice of Alexander. 

Chapter IX. Of the counsels and secret purposes of the 
King^ how they should not he revealed^ and of the tests to he 
employed for councillors. 

There is great danger of a secretary becoming false to you. 
You should test him by asking him to reveal to you all the 
secrets he knows. If he refuses and keeps on refusing — saying 
* Lord, in any other matter I would obey your will, but in this 
it is impossible ' — you may trust him. There will be men 
who will come to you unasked, and curry fevour by offering 
to reveal the secrets of other persons. These you should by 
no means trust. There is a method of knowing by means of 
the science of astronomy the difference between a true and 
a felse man : but it is too long to be set down here. 

Chapter X. Of the solaces of the King, and of minstrelsy 
which should be used in his Court. 

The King may and should, as time and place are suitable, 
divert himself with hawks, hunt with dogs, exercise himself 
with arms and horsemanship. To look upon delightful books, 
to have well-proportioned objects presented to his vision, to 
listen to harmonized sounds {sonos temperatos) and to all sorts 
of instruments which can wholesomely solace the senses of 
man, and to indulge in other seemly sports which do not 
detract from his dignity, — all these things are good for the 
King, and will fit him for his more serious work. But he 
should avoid degrading amusements. 



THE CHRIST CHURCH MANUSCRIPT xix 

Chapter XI. That every covetous^ avaricious^ or envious 
person should be removed from the company of the King, 
The author ampHfies this theme, but adds nothing to it. 

Chapter XII. Of the provision of the King for his men of 

war. 

It is of great importance to equip the poorer vassals. Look 
out promising young men. And, unless the end can be better 
attained by other means, you may by request or royal letters 
require the religious of your abbeys and priories to provide 
fittingly for their food and clothing. Nor is this prejudicial 
to the monasteries, for they are known to possess lands and 
revenues exceeding their necessities, and besides, in time of 
war, these soldiers will defend them. The men thus provided 
for should be trained and drilled : they will owe you gratitude 
for their maintenance, and in war one of them will be worth 
six raw recruits. 

Similarly, you should provide for old and worn-out soldiers. 
You should also fi"om time to time review your army and 
exhort your soldiers to act valiantly and maintain the honour 
of the realm. 

Chapter XIII. An exposition of the letter which King 
Alexander sent to the philosopher Aristotle. 

The point here is that, like Alexander, the King should be 
liberal and gracious to the nobles of a conquered province. 

Chapter XIV. Of the moral virtues pertaining to a king, 
A king should be better than other people. He should 

cultivate Justice, Prudence, Gratitude, Temperance, Liberality. 

Each of these virtues is dwelt upon in a commonplace way. 

Chapter XV. Of the mercy of the King. 

Mercy is especially to be shown to prisoners. 

The writing of pp. 1 1 6, 117 is more contracted than else- 
where in the book. Doubtless this is because pp. 118, 119 
are occupied by full-page pictures, and the writer found that 



XX INTRODUCTION 

his matter was likely to trespass upon them. The writing 
here seems to me identical with that of the Holkham MS. 

Chapter XVI. Of the battles of the King^ of the wisdom he 
must practise in war, and of the exercises of knights and other 
warriors. 

Let him who wishes for peace be prepared for war. 

It was practice and training in arms and military discipline 
that enabled the Romans, few in number and small in stature, 
to prevail against the multitudes of Gauls and the tall Germans. 

Most nations who dwell in countries situated near the sun 
are by nature timid. 

Peasants are better soldiers than dwellers in towns, accus- 
tomed to hard toil, able to stand the sun, unaccustomed to 
baths (read Balneorum for Baueorum) and luxuries. Young 
men, too, are more useful than old men. 

Various reflections on bravery and cowardice and the size 
of an army follow. 

The benefits of training. Sallust ^ says of Pompey, * Cum 
alacribus saltu, cum uelocibus cursu, cum ualidis uecte certabat^ 
He would not otherwise have been able to resist Sertorius. 

The throwing of torches and making terrifying noises are 
useful expedients at the beginning of a battle. 

Different formations should be adopted for infantry and 
cavalry. The ancients compared infantry to a wall. 

You should be provided with wooden towers {castra lignea) 
to attack your enemy and to spy on his movements, and also 
other kinds of machines to throw great stones (grossos for 
gressos) and darts to break down the buildings and walls of 
cities. In some countries, too, there are elephants which carry 
wooden towers. 

Precepts as to taking of counsel. 

You should often visit your army and stimulate the men by 
promises of reward. 

Mistakes in war are irrevocable. 

' In the Histories^ quoted by Vegetius, de re militari, i. 9. 



THE CHRIST CHURCH MANUSCRIPT xxi 

Constantia is a great requisite in a king. 

Look after your commissariat. Keep on the move. Night 
watches are essential. Employ spies. The utility of en- 
couraging the soldiers by speeches. 

On the day of battle soldiers should eat moderately. 

Liberality should be studied when the dividing of the spoil 
comes. 

* And so, most noble Lord, if you observe these lessons con- 
cerning wars and conflicts, and the many others which were 
taught by Aristotle, the prince of philosophers, to the noble 
King Alexander of Macedon, the conqueror of the world, and 
are more fiiUy contained in the book de secretis secretorum 
et prudentiis regum, sent by me to you, I have a firm confidence 
that you will enjoy upon earth victory, honour, and fevour, 
and in heaven, reigning vdth God and the whole heavenly host, 
everlasting glory. Which God grant, who liveth and reigneth 
without end. Amen.' 

I will not say that all this advice is not very correct; but 
Milemete has not the power of making it interesting. All that 
he writes has the air of second-hand book-learning. The chap- 
ters that deal with the virtues that befit the King and with 
war have much in common with the de Secretis Secretorum^ 
and testify also to a knowledge of the work of Vegetius. But 
whereas a large portion of the de Secretis is occupied with the 
subject of medicine and diet, Milemete has nothing to add on 
these topics. 

The Decoration of the Manuscript 

As to the number of artists who have been employed on the 
manuscript there is room for difference of opinion. It will not 
be contested that pp. i-io, ii8, 119, and the outline draw- 
ings at the end, are the work of a single hand. These, how- 
ever, carry with them the combats in the border of pp. 120 sqq., 
and, of course, the picture in the text of p. 120. We are not 



xxii INTRODUCTION 

justified in separating these combats from the other portions 
of the borders. There is a hooded dog-headed monster on 
p. 138 who coincides remarkably with one on p. no. (On 
the other hand, the hairy creatures on pp. 88 and 128, alike 
though they are, need not be by the same hand.) 

We may, to begin with, assign to artist I practically all the 
work on pp. i-io, and from 1 1 8 to the end, besides a possible 
share in intermediate portions. 

Reverting now to the beginning, and taking no account of 
the illustrations in the text, we find a uniform series of heraldic 
and decorative borders with occasional small figures of knights, 
extending from p. 11 to p. 56, with one deviation on p. 37 
(possibly also p. 38) : pp. 59, 60, 63, 64, 67, 68 may be by 
the same hand. We call him artist II. 

With p. 5 7 begins a series of borders in compartments in 
which are grotesques and other figures, while heraldry is dis- 
carded except at rare intervals. With the exceptions already 
recorded, and others to be mentioned, the work of this aftist 
(III) extends over pp. 57-70. Then comes a leaf by artist I 
(pp. 71, 72; compare the nude man on p. 71 with that on 
p. 104): pp. 73, 74 are by another, whom we have not met 
with before (artist IV). 

Artist III resumes at p. 75 and goes on to 82 : pp. 83, 84, 
and (I think) 85 are by artist IV : 86-90 are coarser work : 
91, 92 seem to be Ill's : 93-^6 I attribute to artist II : 97- 
102 are by one artist, whether III or IV I do not feel certain. 
With 103 a new quire begins, and I am inclined to assign the 
whole of the subsequent work to artist I.^ 

Tabulating these surmises we get the following scheme : 

quire i pp. i-io Pictures and borders Artist I 

quires ii-iv pp. 11-56 (except perhaps 37, 38) Borders Artist II 

quire V' pp. 57, 58 Borders Artist III

quires viii-xii pp. 103-156 Pictures and borders Artist I 

The pictures in the text are also the work of several artists. 
We have seen that one hand is responsible for those at the be- 
ginning and end. For the rest the following division is sub- 
mitted, which is practically that of Mr. S. C. Cockerell, who 
has also given me the benefit of his advice in the discrimination 
of the work in the borders. 

A single artist, A, is responsible for the illustrations on 
pp. II, 16, 53, 2iYi.& possibly 85. 

A second, B, did those on pp. 36, 42. 

A third, C, those on pp. 48 and 115 : note the similarity 
of the suppliant figures in the two pictures. Yet the picture on 
p. 1 1 5 occurs in the middle of work by artist I, and I cannot 
be sure that it is not his. 

To a fourth artist, D, is assigned the single picture on p. 74. 

To a fifth, E, those on pp. 88, 92, 99, 102. 

It must be added that artist A did at least the figures in the 
border of p. 11, and as these cannot easily be separated fi:om 
the rest of the border, it seems as if we should identify him 
with artist II of the borders. 

To artist II are assigned fF. 1—5 of the Holkham MS., and 
to artist IV, f. 14 and some others in that volume. 

Of the various artists whose work is thus tentatively divided, 
none attains to the highest excellence. The work of artist I is 
characterized by boldness and largeness of execution. It seems 
not unlikely, judging firom the full-page compositions, in which 
I should say that he took most pleasure, that he was accustomed 
to deal with larger surfaces than were afforded by the pages of 
books. It is possible that his pfoper w.ork was that of a mural 



xxiv INTRODUCTION 

painter. I see no such indication in the work of the remain- 
ing artists ; they were book-illustrators, and most of them very 
competent men. But all that is most original in the volume 
is the work of a single painter, who seems here to be working 
under conditions which did not allow his productions to be seen 
to the best advantage. 

It is not necessary, in the case of the Christ Church MS., to 
describe in detail each of the decorated pages, since reproduc- 
tions of all of them are before the reader. I will, however, 
enumerate the subjects represented, and add such explanatory 
remarks as appear useful. Notes on the heraldic portions of 
the decorations are reserved for a special section. 

p. I . The pictures all have reference to hawking. In the 
principal one the young ^King sits with hawk on hand, and 
holding a hawking glove. On r. and l. in the margins are young 
men with hawking gloves and a hawk. Below them on l. an- 
other with hawking gloves, and on r. one beating a metal vessel 
to put up the game. Both these are looking at the scene below, 
where a man with a lure (of two birds' wings) in his hand is 
flying a hawk at two ducks which are about to rise out of a 
stream. 

p. 2 has knights and shields. These, and the fancy gro- 
tesques, it is no part of my plan to notice. 

p. 3. Margin : a dragon and a * monk-fish '. 

p. 4. A St. Christopher of the ordinary type occupies half 
the page. 

p. 5 . Full page : St. George arming the young King : he 
is about to hand to him the shield of England. 

pp. 6, 7. A group of four knights on horseback assailing 
a castle of ladies. The knights have no weapons, and the 
ladies, four in number, are repelling the attack by throwing 
flowers and shooting — possibly flowers — from bows apparently 
empty. The scene resembles those sieges of the Castle of Love 
which are often figured on the ivory caskets of the period. 

p. 8. A king and queen seated. It cannot be Edward III, 



THE CHRIST CHURCH MANUSCRIPT xxv 

or, at least, it cannot be his queen who is intended to be shown, 
for in 1326 he was not yet married. An angel flying down 
gives a flower to each, as in the pictures of St. Cecilia. 

p. 9. Picture in text (cap. i. Of the invocation of the name 
of God). The Trinity (of the form known as the * Italian' 
Trinity, with the crucified Son). Three angels arm the kneel- 
ing King ; one handing him a lance, the others holding out 
sword and shield. 

At top two angels adore the picture of Christ. On r. in the 
margin kneels a beardless youth. In the initial a page holds 
a caparisoned horse. 

p. 16. Picture in text (the Epistola allectiva^ cap. ii). The 
King throned, with three bishops and Milemete on l., and four 
courtiers on r. Milemete, conventionally represented, wears a 
long robe with a hood lined with vair, and holds up a book — 
this book, we may suppose — ofi^ring it to the King. 

p. 27. Note the lion and grifiin. 

p. 28. Picture in text (Of the importance of religion to the 
King). Christ throned in air, holding the tripartite globe and 
blessing. On l. the King, robed, kneels and adores Him. Above 
his head two angels. The lower holds out a folded robe, the one 
above is nude. Possibly this represents the charity which the 
King should exercise in clothing the naked. On r. stand three 
boys in a row : the one in the middle has in each hand something 
like a short piece of a garland of leaves or flowers, the end of 
which is held by those on each side of him, so that the three seem 
at first sight to be holding each other by the hand. These 
also may be recipients of the King's charity. Above their heads 
are three angels playing musical instruments. 

In the initial, the King throned. 

In the lower border the King on a white horse. A page 
adjusts his spur or stirrup : another by the horse's head may be 
holding the reins. 

p. 36. Picture in text (Of the nobility of the King). The 
King throned, with groups of subjects kneeling on r. and l. 
Christ stooping out of a cloud above crowns him. On l. are 

d 



xxvi INTRODUCTION 

three demi-angels, two playing fiddle and double pipe, the 
lowest holding out a heart-shaped object: on r. four angels, 
two with harp and lute, the next with a five-petalled flower (the 
five wounds ?), the lowest with a cross.

p. 5 3 . Picture in text (Of the King's gratitude). The King 
throned. On l. three mailed knights with lances looking up at 
him. On r. a group of men holding out a piece of money (?), 
a charter with seal dependent, a gold cup, a garment : below, 
in fi'ont, a group of horses (one saddled) and a hound. These 
represent the military service and the tribute of various kinds 
which the King will receive and must repay becomingly. 

With p. 57 begins a series of borders with bold grotesques 
and other figures, in compartments. 

p. 57 has King, bishop, fiddler, organ-player; also a butter- 
fly at top. At bottom a scene : a barefooted churl in a 
hooded robe gallops off" to r. on a dappled horse, carrying ofi* 
a lady and brandishing a huge dart. She stretches out her arms 
to a knight in armour on foot on l., who is, I suppose, to 
rescue her. 

p. 58. King seated with hawk on hand : lady seated with 
pet squirrel : two men with bow and cross-bow shooting up- 
wards : two knights, one squatting cross-legged, one opening 
his visor.

curved stick. For a similar picture see Holkham MS., 
f. 44 h. 

p. 141. Blank, ruled for writing, p. 142 blank. 

pp. 143 sqq. are occupied by a series of outline drawings 
in plain frames occupying the whole page. They are by the 
same artist as pp. i-io and the latter part of the MS. 

p. 143 represents a castle with the approach defended by 
battlemented walls : one armed knight is in the gate, and another 
within the battlemented wall of the inner bailey. The keep 
has a domed lead roof. 

pp. 144, 145 form a single composition. On p. 144 two 
knights are propelHng by means of staves a wooden tower on 
four solid wheels, to the front of which is hinged a platform, 
to be let down by pulleys at the top. The top of the tower 
is conical, wdth chevaux de frise. Within it are five knights. 

On p. 145 is the fort, roughly circular, which they are 
attacking. It is on a rock with steps leading up to the port- 
cullised gate. It consists of two main stories. Three knights 
are seen in it, two in the lower story and one at the top. 

p. 146. A fort in two stories, attacked by a force. Two 
scaling ladders are planted against it on l. and r. The knight 
on the L. one has a mace, and the other a sword. They are 
engaging two knights, and the one on r. is kilUng his man. 
The only other of the besieged, in c, is thrusting down with 
a spear at an assailant below, who receives it on his shield. Of 
the other assailants, one on l. is driving in a wedge with a mallet 
to support the ladder; the other is winding up a cross-bow. 

p. 147. A machine for throwing Greek fire : it consists of 
four arms arranged like the sails of a windmill, revolving on a 
pivot supported by an upright. It is made to revolve by a rope 
on a capstan and a counterpoise. This is being worked by a 
knight on r. In the end of each arm of the machine is a bowl- 
Hke receptacle : in three of these is a flaming substance ; that 
in the fourth is being lighted with a torch by a knight on l. 

pp. 148, 149 form a single composition — a device for throw- 
ing hives of bees into a fortress. On p. 148 is the machine, a 

e 



xxxiv INTRODUCTION 

four-sailed windmill on an upright, which has a little shelter 
on the top with a conical roof. On each sail is placed a bee- 
hive. A knight is engaged in placing one on the sail nearest 
to him on r., and holds a fifth in his l. hand. 

On p. 149 we see the result. There is a fort with outer 
bailey and keep ; a knight in the gate with a large shield. An- 
other in the door of the keep, with a cross-bow. A third on l. 
throwing a stone, a beehive in the air above him and bees 
about him. On r. a knight with a sling, also attacked by 
a bee. 

p. 150. A fortress of the same type. In it, on r. and l., 
are two knights, each throwing a stone down on the assailants, 
of whom there are four. Those on r. and l. are holding their 
shields over the other two, who are digging (mining the wall) 
with pickaxes. 

p. 1 5 1 . A single figure — very well drawn — of a knight in 
large visored helmet aiming to l. a missile fi-om a large cross-bow. 
The missile appears to consist of a square flat box containing 
fire, which is to be propelled by a dart behind it. 

pp. 152, 153 form a single composition. On p. 152 three 
knights are about to lower by means of a rope a broad platform 
consisting of wattle-work with transverse planks at intervals : 
the lower end rests on two solid wheels. An upright shaft 
on L. has a pulley at top with a rope running to the upper end 
of the platform. 

On p. 153 is the fort against which the scaling platform is 
to be placed. It is as usual of two stories. On the wall is a 
knight with a large axe prepared to smash the platform : in the 
door of the keep is another with a cross-bow. 

pp. 154, 155 form a single composition. On p. 154 is a 
walled tower, roughly circular, with three main buildings inside 
it. Above it in the air is a fish-shaped kite, flown horizontally, 
firom which depends by some sort of chain a contrivance which 
is letting fell a fire-ball. The rope of the kite goes over into 
P' 15 5> where it is held, evidently with some exertion, by three 
knights. On the l. of this page is an upright with a pulley at 



THE CHRIST CHURCH MANUSCRIPT xxxv 

the top, under which, perhaps, the rope of the kite should pass; 
but it is not in use. 

p. 156. A knight on l. is winding up a ballista loaded 
with a round stone. The head is held back by a rope passing 
over a pulley on an upright on l. The ballista is on a frame 
of two uprights, travelling on two solid wheels. The up- 
rights are connected by two horizontal strands of twisted 
rope in which the lower end of the ballista is inserted; the 
upper one of these is being wound up by means of a four- 
handled capstan. 

The picture which has attracted most attention in the Christ 
Church MS. is naturally that of the cannon on p. 140. This 
and the corresponding one in the Holkham MS., f. 44^ (the 
latter, so far as I know, not having been hitherto noticed), rank 
at present as the earliest extant representations of cannons. 
They are especially interesting in that they can be dated to 
a year — 1326. 

Sir G. F. Warner has kindly procured for me the loan of 
certain notices relating to the Christ Church picture. 

A reproduction of it appeared in the illustrated edition of 
Social England {\ (^02 : vol. ii, p. 246). 

In 1905 Hime, in the Proceedings of the Royal Artillery 
Institute (no. 12, vol. xxxi, p. 489), gave an outline illustration, 
and cited an entry from the first volume of the commercial 
records of Ghent, in which, after a list of the municipal officers 
for the year 1 3 1 3, is this note : 

*Item in dit jaer was aldereest ghevonden in deutschlandt het 
ghebruik der bussen van eenen mueninck.' 

(Item, in this year was first invented in Germany the use of 
cannon, by a monk.) 

The first volume of the commercial records of Ghent has 
in 1 3 14 several entries of * bussen met kruyt' (cannon with 
powder) dispatched to England. 

The Christ Church cannon, says Hime, is probably one of the 
very bussen which were got from Flanders in 13 14. 



xxxvi INTRODUCTION 

Oskar Guttmann wrote on the subject in the Journal of the 
Chemical Society {^wnc 15, 1904). 

In the Kynoch Journal (vol. vii, no. 36, Oct.-Dec. 1906, 
p. 168) Professor "Sir A. G. Greenhill, F.R.S., described the 
picture. An incendiary arrow is being fired : a flake of red 
colour, meant to represent the fire on the head of the arrow, 
has fellen off. The knight holds a cleft stick with a match, 
and the priming is represented as fired, but the cross feathers 
of the arrow have not left the muzzle, so no blast of powder is 
visible. 

In 1905 M. Victor v. der Haeghen, the city archivist of 
Ghent, threw doubt on the genuineness of the document cited 
by Hime. Sir A. Greenhill had examined, not the original 
vellum book, but a paper transcript of later date. The celebrated 
felsificator Delbecq might, it was thought, have had a hand in 
the fabrication of it. 

In the Kynoch Journal for Apr.-June, 1907 (vol. viii, no. 
38, p. 75), Guttmann again threw doubt on the Ghent note. 
According to a letter to him from M. Rohren, Chief of the 
Department of General Archives, it is only in one of the manu- 
scripts, which belonged to M. de S. Genois, that we find in the 
year 1393 (not 13 13) this note; 

* 1393. In dit jaer is ghevonden het ghebruick van het 
buscruit (gunpowder) in Duytslant van eenen mueninck' 
{Memorialbook der stad Gent. 1301— 1727; Gent, Armoot- 
Braeekman, 1852, pt. i, bl. 126). And, says M. Rohren, 
* with regard to the degree of veracity which can be attributed 
to the annotations in these manuscripts, which were generally 
(i.e. for the most part) written in the sixteenth century, it is 
nearly nil^ the compilations added after the list (of magistrates, 
etc.) having a very fantastic character.' 

In the same volume (p. 78) Sir A. Greenhill replies to this 
article and says : * I can understand how the celebrated entry of 
1 3 1 3 came to be overlooked, as the Ghent librarian was on the 
point of shutting up the book after a search under 1393 as 
well as 1 3 1 3 , when my eye caught a phrase in the middle of 



THE CHRIST CHURCH MANUSCRIPT xxxvii 

the text, which turned out to be our phrase, Item in dit jaer, 
etc. . . . To settle the matter conclusively, some one else must 
make an independent examination. The phrase was written 
in the same hand as the rest of the transcript, and not apart as 
a separate note.' 

I have thought it worth while to give these extracts, though 
the question of the genuineness of the Ghent entry is not strictly 
relevant to our subject. 

As to the condition and writing of the manuscript, it may 
be remarked that the writing is uniform throughout, save on 
pp. 1 1 6, 117, where it is possibly by a different hand, and 
certainly much more contracted. Mistakes are fairly frequent, 
and have not always been corrected. Some of the corrections 
may be due to the hand of the author, e. g. the Dupe and the 
nuper on p. 19. The only noticeable abbreviation is 9. capital 
•N- for enim. 

The condition is excellent. In six cases (on pp. 28, 53, 85, 
92, 99, 118) the (blue) silk guards of the pictures have sur- 
vived. One leaf (in quire 5) has been lost ; as was noted above, 
it was perhaps purposely removed.

xl INTRODUCTION 

The decoration, which will be described in fuller detail, is 
incomplete. It runs thus : i. la has full border and picture ; 
I ^-5,^, full borders ; 6 a, border and picture ; 6^-18^, borders 
and sixteen pictures ; i g, no border, two pictures ; 20a, border 
and picture ; 2 o*^, no border, one picture ; 2 1 <3r- 2 5 <$, no borders, 
seven pictures ; 2 5 <$, unfinished border, one picture ; 2 6 sqq., 
no borders, two pictures ; 28, partial border, one picture; 30^, 
partial border, one picture ; 30*^, one picture ; 32^, border ; 
32^-39^, eleven pictures ; 40 ^-44 <^, full borders (only the first 
finished), three pictures (one finished) ; 45^-67^, twenty-five 
pictures j 6 8 ^, a pen-sketch of a border ; 69-7 6 ^, ten pictures 
unfinished. 

It is difficult to determine with certainty the number of artists 
who have been employed on the manuscript. In consultation 
with Mr. Cockerell I have drawn up the following scheme, 
which is very much subject to correction : 

S. i-s Artist I 

6-13 . n 

14-18 akin to I III 

19, 20 IV 

21-24 inferior V 

25-27 IV 

28-31 IV? 

32a II ? 

3 2 i-2 9 ^ inferior VI 

40-44 I ? 

45-52 VI 

53-60 IV 

61-68 VII ? 

69-76 VIII ? 

The work of artists I-III can be difFerentiated by their 
drawing of the Hons in the shields. 

Two of these artists (I and III) were, in Mr. Cockerell's 
opinion, employed on the Christ Church MS. I is identical 
with artist II of that manuscript : II with artist IV. 

The improbability of so many as eight artists having been 
employed on a single book is at first sight considerable. It 
should, however, be remembered that, in the first place, the book 
was in all likelihood made in London, where a large number 



THE HOLKHAM MANUSCRIPT xli 

of professional illuminators lived; and, in the second place, 
that the volume was evidently being prepared in great haste. 
Consequently the work would be given to whoever was avail- 
able at the moment : and in the end we see that it was offered 
to the young King before the decoration was nearly finished. 
A glance at the facsimile of f. 2\b will show that some of the 
illuminators employed were very poor performers. On the other 
hand, the best work in the Holkham book is quite as good as 
any in the Christ Church MS. 

I now give a detailed description of the decorated pages of 
the Holkham MS. 

{. \a (fees.). Full solid border: ground mainly gold of 
rather poor quality. In it, at top, two angels hold shield of 
England : there is a spot of blue on it, probably a set-off from 
another painting. In the r. border, besides foliage, are a lion 
under an oak-tree ; a stag seiant by a tree ; a long-tailed short- 
eared reddish beast under a tree, looking round to l. ; a warrior 
under a trefoiled arch, girt with sword, holding spear ; in surcoat 
of England with traces of a label azure. 

At bottom, two shields : England and England with label 
of five points azure (for the heir-apparent). 

The picture, bordered with squares of red and blue, patterned. 
The ground for the r. two-thirds is lozengy of gold with four- 
petalled flowers, and fleurs-de-lys seemingly or on azure. The 
L. third is plain gold. On l. is a seated bearded king (Alexan- 
der) under trefoiled arch, robed in blue over vermilion, holding a 
sceptre. On r. a seated philosopher (Aristotle) in pink robe over 
vermilion, bearded, with hand to fe.ce, holding a blank scroll. 
Out of the seat on which he sits rises a desk with curved stem, on 
which is an open book. Between these two figures, on a lower 
seat, is a youth in pale blue writing on a scroll on his knee, 
feeing L. 

f. \b. Border: general scheme, bays of pattern with 
medallions in square framed projections. One of the bays has 
displayed eagles, or on azure. The medallions contain cock,

divided by projecting bands into four sections. At top is a 
shallow basin, meant, I think, for a trumpet mouth. These 
men are in fact blowing a colossal trumpet. The text says ; 
* Et oportet te tecum habere illud instrumentum quod themi- 
stius (fecit) ad opus excercitus ad uocandum exercitum. Et est 
instrumentum terribile quod dicitur multis modis. Quia forte 
oporteret te uisitare prouinciam tuam et regnum tuum congre- 
gare subito proceresque tuos bellatores in eadem die uel cicius 
uel alio modo prout indiget exercitus magnus et numerosus. 
Huius instrumenti sonus auditur per .Ix. miliaria.' 

The true reading, in which the half-dozen of manuscripts 
which I have examined agree, is diuiditur {multis modis)^ 
instead of dicitur. 

This portentous instrument is not mentioned, as far as I can 
discover, in any document older than the Seer eta. It attracted 
the attention of the polymath Athanasius Kircher, who in two 
of his surprising works gives representations of it, copied from 
a Vatican manuscript which he calls ' antiquissimus ', and 
which apparently contained the text of the Pseudo- Aristotle and 
something in the nature of a comment upon it. The first work 
in which Kircher mentions it is the Ars magna lucis et umbrae 
(Lib. II, pt. I, cap. 7 : p. 102 in the Amsterdam edition of 
1 671), where a woodcut is given and the source mentioned. 
The other is the Phonurgia nova (Campidonae — Kempten — 
1674, p. 132). Here he says, *Aguntur iam complura lustra 
quibus in Bibliotheca Vaticana . . . inciderem in librum 
cui titulus erat Secreta Aristotelis ad Alexandrum Magnum^ 
ubi inter caetera de cornu prodigioso Alexandri Magni haec 



THE HOLKHAM MANUSCRIPT Iv 

leguntur : Faciebat hoc cornu adeo vehementem sonum ut eo 
exercitum suum ad centum stadia (quorum octo unum milliare 
Italicum conficiunt) dispersum convocare perhibeatur. Habe- 
bat autem, ut libellus monstrat, quinque cubitos in diametro, 
et fulcri suspendebatur annulo,uti ego reor, cuius tamen figuram 
non describit. Figuram hie appono, prout in dicto libro im- 
pressam reperi, cum Epigraphe : Cornu Alexandri Magni: 

The woodcut (in both books) shows the horn in the form of 
a ring, with mouthpiece and mouth on opposite sides of the 
circumference. The ring is thickest at the mouth and slenderest 
at the mouthpiece. In the Phonurgia a page of engravings 
follows, showing three designs by Kircher of the way in which 
he thought the horn might have been used, and what form 
it ought to have in order to produce the greatest body of sound. 
He gives first the form shown in the woodcut, suspended from 
a triangle of beams, and a soldier blowing into it ; then a horn 
of ordinary form, but vdth a spiral body; and lastly, the horn 
in a ring-form, but again spirally twisted. 

Something in the nature of a clue to Kircher's source is 
furnished by the as yet unprinted notes of Roger Bacon upon 
the Secreta. I have examined the two Cambridge manuscripts 
of this text (Trinity Coll. O. i. 12, and Fitzwilliam McClean 
153), and give the resultant text. It should be premised that 
Bacon's work consisted in the insertion of interlinear readings 
from other copies (he tells us he had collated four), and the 
addition of explanatory notes. In his numbering the passage 
is at the end of cap. 1 8 of Part III of the whole work. 

de instrumento bellico exercitum coadunante et de forma elusdem 

Et oportet te tecum habere illud instrumentum

regnum tuum et congregare subito proceres tuos bellatores 



Ivi INTRODUCTION 

tuos in eadem die uel cicius uel aliquo modo prout indiget 
exercitus magnus et numerosus : nam huius instrumenti 
sonus audituf per milliaria sexaginta [af this point follows 
Bacons comment^ as I suppose^. Hoc est cornu eneum 
artiflcio mirabili fabricatum, quo ex .Ix. milliariis tempore 
belli suum exercitum conuocabat : et regebatur cornu Ix 
hominibus propter sui magnitudinem et inestimabile arti- 
ficium : et verisimile est quod multa metallorum resonan- 
cium genera in eius composicione concurrebant, et hec 
forma cornu. 

No picture or space for a picture follows/ but the title of 
cap. 19. However, a figure was clearly intended, and it is 
probable that the Vatican MS. seen by Kircher was a copy of 
the Bacon text, more complete than ours. 

The objections to this view are (i) that Kircher's source gave 
the dimensions of the horn as five cubits in diameter, which 
Bacon does not : but the dimensions may have been merely 
written on the figure. (2) That Kircher uses the word *im- 
pressam', suggesting a printed book. On the other hand, in 
the Ars Magna he calls his source * Codex antiquissimus '. 
(3) That Kircher appears to quote a comment fi-om his authority, 
of which the wording differs fi-om Bacon's : but, as he admits, 
many years had passed since he had seen the manuscript. 

The mediaeval versions that I have seen throw no light on the 
horn. Some (as Lydgate) omit the passage, others give it quite 
literally. The rendering of a fifteenth-century translator is 
worth quoting as a curiosity (Steele, p. 109) : *And it nedys 
that thou haue with the the Instrument that Cenustinus made to 
the use of the Hoste : and it ys a dispytous Instrument that out- 
spredys it in many maners . . . the sounde of the Instrument 
ys herd sextye mylee.' James Yonge, the Anglo-Irish para- 
phrast of the Secreta, abridges the passage and reduces the 
range of the horn to 'sixe myle fere' (1. c. p. 215). 

' I am informed by Mr. Craster that this is also the case in the Bodleian MS. 
Tanner 116, of which the Cambridge MSS. are probably copies.

cannon, which may have been coloured silver, and is now dark, 
is of the same form as that in the Christ Church MS. It lies 
on a massive table (apparently a stone slab on a red and blue 
base), mouth to r., and is to fire a dart with a long head. The 
touch-hole is at the l. end in a line with the mouth. Of the 
knights, the first two (from r.) appear to have been drawn at 
first holding spears (as on f. 43^), but their attitude has been 
changed so that they now hold up their hands to shield their 
feces. The third knight shields his face with his r. hand, and

I find Uttle to remark upon as to the writing of the manu-

dition is not very good. Several leaves are lost; the first page 
and the last have been rubbed and soiled : probably for some 
time the volume went without a cover. 

Until its appearance side by side with its sister of Christ 
Church, at the BurHngton Fine Arts Club Exhibition of 
illuminated manuscripts in 1908, I do not know that it had 
ever been noticed in print, except in M. Leon Dorez's splendid 
publication, Les Manuscrits a Peintures de la Bibliothlque de 
Lord Leicester (1908), in which pi. 29 is devoted to the 
illustration of ff. 6«, 18^, and pp. 43—4 to the description. 



'The Secreta Secretorum 

It would require more knowledge than I can claim to give 
anything like an adequate account of the Secreta Secretorum. 
There is no critical edition, either of the original Arabic text, 
or of the Latin translations : and a very extensive research must 
be undertaken by any one who intends to produce such a thing. 
The present — or a recent — state of knowledge is conveniently 
set forth by Mr. Robert Steele in the preface to his edition of

THE HOLKHAM MANUSCRIPT Ixiii 

E.E.T.S., Extra Series Ixvi, 1894). Fuller expositions may 
be found in the valuable articles by Knust and Steinschneider 
(the latter supplementary to the former) in the extinct Jahr- 
bucher f, r'dm. u. engL Litteratur^ vols, x and xii. 

The briefest summary of the history must suffice here. 

The book professes to have been found in the Temple of the 
Sun by Jahja ibn al Batrik (Johannes filius Patricii), who trans- 
lated it out of Greek into Chaldee, and thence into Arabic. 
He is supposed to have lived in cent, viii-ix, and may perhaps 
have been the author of the whole treatise. 

No Greek text is known, but we have the Arabic. This — or 
rather a very small portion of it, dealing mainly with the rules 
of health — was first translated into Latin in the twelfth century 
by John of Seville (Johannes Hispalensis, John Avendeath) for 
a queen of Spain, This version has, I think, never been printed. 

A second and complete Latin version appeared — ^perhaps 
early in the thirteenth century — made by a cleric Philip, and 
dedicated to Guido de Valentia, bishop of Tripoli, whose date 
and individuality are obscure. It was in this form that the book 
was known to the men of the Middle Ages. Versions of it 
in almost every European language exist. It seems to have 
enjoyed^ special popularity in England, judging by the number 
of English manuscripts of the Latin text, and the multipHcity 
of EngHsh versions. Mr. Steele has edited four of these — three 
in prose and one in verse — and others are known to exist. 
Roger Bacon wrote comments on the book before the middle 
of the thirteenth century, and Michael Scot, who died before 
1235, quotes it. Gower and Hoccleve make use of it in the 
Confessio Amantis and the Regement of Princes. Its influence 
upon continental literature has also been considerable. How 
much has been derived from it by the writers of the many 
treatises upon the duties of kings or the training of princes has 
yet to be shown in detail. It is in this influence that the chief 
interest of the book consists; considered as a literary composi- 
tion, or as a repository of useful knowledge, it has not much 
to recommend it. 



Heraldry 

The following notes upon the Heraldry of the Christ Church 
MS., most kindly contributed by Mr. A. Van de Put, of 
the Victoria and Albert Museum, South Kensington, will 
be found to add greatly to the interest of the reproduction. It 
is no small thing to have secured the co-operation of so great 
an authority upon heraldic history as Mr. Van de Put. 

It will be seen that there is (as might perhaps have been 
anticipated) a lack of method in the disposition of the coats ; 
and a good many of them appear to be purely imaginary. The 
question of the date of the manuscript is complicated rather 
than cleared up by them: and the possibility of subsequent 
alterations — additions of labels, and in one case (p. go) the 
addition of a whole shield — is suggested. My examination of 
the manuscript furnished me with no certain indication of this : 
but the possibiHty must be kept in mind. 

As to the date of the book, some remarks of Mr. Van de Put 
in a letter to me may be quoted : 

' I quite concur that Edward III is the King of the book as it stands : 
on pp. 1 6, 17 is an Edward whose style fits any of the Angevin house from 
Henry III to about 1 340 ; but cannot help feeling that the bulk of the 
book was planned out regnante Edwardo II. We have, over and over 
again, the arms of England a label of five azure, the insignia of the heir- 
apparent — non-existent in 1326—7, after Edward Ill's accession. Also, 
the continual grouping of the arms of a king and of Queen Isabella ; I do 
not feel altogether satisfied that we have not, here, the arms of husband and 
wife rather than of son and mother — great as was Isabella's influence in 
1326—7. In the large miniature depicting them seated, have we not 
Edward II and his consort ? The opening quire with the portrait of the 
King as frontispiece, can it not have been added upon Edward Ill's 
accession ? . . . AH through I have been certain that the armorial incidence 
of the work fell to Edward II.' 

The heraldry of the Holkham book (which, as we have seen, 
is spoken of by Milemete in terms which suggest that it had

' On this Mr. Van de Put notes in a letter to me : * This I take to be a version 
of the arms adopted by Edward III in 1340, and consequently an addition.' He 
also remarks, as to the labels : ' Can all the labels of five points azure, forming the 
coat of the heir-apparent^ have been in the original scheme? These labels are 
difFerendy designed to other labels throughout : land in some cases the colour 
appears to have " run " or blotted, as though superimposed upon the original coat 
itself.' 

* Labels are of five points throughout. 

♦ These arms exemplify the Queen ; but her exacter insignia included at least 
the Navarrese chains, in right of her mother, Johanna, heiress of the kings of 
Navarre of the house of Champagne. Margaret (d. 13 18), daughter of Philip III 
of France, bore also, as Edward I's second consort, England and France ancient

In addition to the royal arms occurring throughout the manuscript, its 
miniatures and ornamentation contain other insignia of varying importance 
and authenticity. 

The compositions into which heraldry enters may be classified as — 
{a) larger miniatures; 

{b) single figures of knights in side borders; 

{c) historiated lower borders depicting encounters between knights, 
monsters, etc. 

Class {c) comprises, besides a number of fantastic subjects to the armory 
of which little significance can be attached (e.g. pp. 65, 69, 79, 81, 98, 

' 111 reversed order. 



HERALDRY Ixvii 

132), others figuring combats and scenes of warfare, the heraldic adjuncts 
to which appear at first sight to be genuine coat-armour. But examina- 
tion of this class of subject reveals in many cases a coincidence in the 
charges borne (cf. the bars and bends, pp. 121, 122, 125, 133, and I34),and 
in their tincturing (pp. 82 and 1 2 3, sable and argent ; 1 25, gules and argent; 
1 34, azure and or), which can hardly have proceeded from an intention 
to represent incidents in which specific persons were concerned. 

A proportion of the blazonry in groups (a) and (^) is obviously authentic, 
if sometimes equivocally tinctured (sable on argent, pp. 61 and 92), and 
it finds corroboration in Edwardian rolls. The general selection of the 
arms is not easily to be accounted for, and, with the exception of the royal 
coats, may not improperly be described as haphazard. 

The following, belonging to one or other of the groups mentioned 
(but exclusive of royal coats emblazoned in the borders), call for special 
notice : 

p. 2 (inner border ; below). A knight in long surcoat : Barry azure and 
argent an escucheon argent^ on a chief azure gyroned argent a pallet of the 
same ; for Mortimer.

p. 4 (outer border, above). A knight with surcoat : Or three torteaux;

Evidence for the omission of the label azure by a Courtenay ot this 
generation is found in the seal of a ' Hugh de Courtenay ', 1 298 
(Brit. Mus., no. 9010), bearing the separate coats of Courtenay (three 
roundels). Basset, and Le Despencer. 

Hugh Courtenay (d. 1340), summoned to Parhament 1298-9 to 
1334, afterwards as Earl of Devon, was son of Sir Hugh Cmirtenay, 
of Okehampton, and Alianora Le Despencer, daughter of Hugh Le

Nicholas Moels (son of John, of N. Cadbury, Somerset, who bore :

wards Earl of Devon, already mentioned, and died 1315-16, when 
the representation of the family devolved upon his brothers, Roger 
(d. 1325-6) and John (d. 1337), respectively, neither of whom were 
however summoned to Parliament. 

The identification with ' Wake * is apparently due to a misappre-

however, bore the above with a bordure indented sable (Boroughbridge

(d) . . . a dragon (?) gules. 

(e) Square ailette : Gules three escallops, i and 2, or. 

The coat, England a baton azure, was borne by Henry of Lancaster, Lord 
of Monmouth, during the life of his elder brother, Thomas, Earl of Lan- 
caster and of Leicester, etc., executed after Boroughbridge in 1322. 

Henry was created Earl of Leicester in 1324, when, or by May 1325, 
i.e. before the reversal of Lancaster's attainder — in virtue of which reversal 
(1326-7, March 7) he succeeded to the earldom of Lancaster — he 
assumed the arms of the earls of Lancaster of his house : England a label 
of France. 

The single instance in the manuscript of the earldom's arms (p. 22), in 
contrast with the six parallel instances of the minor Lancaster coat (pp. 42, 
44, 54, 56, 64, and 22), may be attributed to the still dubious associations 
of the former in 1326-7. If, however, the group to which the insignia 
of Lancaster-Monmouth belong be considered half of a composition 
comprising both the miniatures in pp. 118 and 119, the representation 
of these arms in battle with the Crown appears a m^prise. Boroughbridge 
was fought, moreover, between Thomas of Lancaster and Harcla — not 
Edward II in person. 

p. 120 (above). Miniature : equestrian group. In the centre the King 
of England ; of the persons attending him the armorials of two only are 
distinguishable : 

{a) Surcoat, square ailette, and trappers : Azure a bend argent cotised and

{b) trappers only : Or two bars gules and two (for three) torteaux in chief; 
for Wake. 

' A counter-seal of Earl Thomas, at variance with the seal proper, exhibits a label 
of France of five points ; the same is assigned to him in certain rolls (Guillim, Charles, 
and St. George) in which the labels are uniformly of that variety. Yet the identity 
of the coat, labelled of 4, or of 5 points, was implied by Henry of Lancaster, in 1325, 
in repelling the royal accusation of treason in that he had abandoned his own arms 
and was bearing his [attainted] brother's insignia. He said that he had assumed 
the arms rather of his father than of his brother, which also were his by right of 
succession, the more so as his first-born brother [Thomas] died without issue. See 
the Monk of Malmesbury, 'Vita Edwardi II,' in Chronicles of the reigns of Edward I 
and Edward II, 1883, ii, 281-2. 



HERALDRY Ixxi 

The contemporary Earl of Hereford and High Constable of Eng- 
land was John de Bohun (d. 1335-6), a cousin of Edward III, being 
eldest son of Edward II's sister Elizabeth, by Earl Humphrey, slain 
m 1322 at Boroughbridge. 

Thomas, Lord Wake of Lydell (i 297-1 349), was summoned to 
Parliament 1317-48. He was doubly allied with the house of 
Lancaster, having married, secondly, before June 13 17, Blanche, 
daughter of Henry, Lord of Monmouth, later Earl of Lancaster. 
His sister and eventual heir, Margaret, married, about Christmas 
1325, Edmund, Earl of Kent, brother of Edward II, and died 
in 1349. 

p. 120 (below). Mounted knights in combat : 

(a) Surcoat and ailettes : ^zure a lion rampant argent; for Montalt. 

' Sire Robert de Mouhaut, de azure a un lioun rampaund de argent. 

(Parliamentary Roll; also 4th Nobility Roll, 1 308. Roger de Muhautt: 

Harleian Roll, temp. Edward I or II.) 

Sir Robert de Montalt was summoned to Parliament 1298-9 to 
1329. He died in 1329. 

{b) ailettes : Gules a fesse, two martlets and a bordure argent ; intended 
possibly for a Beauchamp coat. 

p. 124 (lower border). The King and three mounted knights : 
(/?) Behind the King, shield : Argent a bend between six martlets gules; for 
Furnival. 

' Sire Thomas de Fornival, de argent a une bende et vj mereloz de goules.^ 
(Parliamentary Roll ; also 4th and 5th Nobility Rolls.) 

Thomas de Furnival, senior, of Sheffield, was summoned to Parlia- 
ment from 1295 to 1331-2. 

{h) Surcoat: Barry of ten argent and gules. The shield is uncertain, as to 
the number of bars. 

(c) Shield : Argent a lion rampant sable ; for Stapleton. 

The intention to depict authentic coats is perhaps clearer here than in 
most of the scenes of combat, equestrian and foot, in this part of the 
manuscript, 

p. 132 (outer border). A knight with shield and ailette : Or a saltire 
engrailed sable ; for Botetourt- 

Apparently for John de Botetourt, summoned to Parliament 1342- 
85, son of Thomas (d. 1322), and grandson of John de Botetourt, 
summoned from 1305 till his death in 1324, whom he succeeded. 
In the latter's lifetime John II had differenced with a label (3) gules 
platey (Boroughbridge). The arms are given in Parliamentary Roll : 
De or a un sautoir engrele de sable.
